Premier League Review with Darren Fletcher

Are Chelsea truly back, can Ange turn things around at struggling Spurs & why are Brentford so good at home & not away? Those are the all-important questions that Chappers, Rory Smith, Chris Sutton and Andros Townsend try to answer on the MNC pod. 

Chelsea are up to second in the Premier League table with the youngest team in the league – so are some of the guys eating their words now? (They take a little trip with Rory down memory lane...)

Focus then turns to Tottenham and why Ange Postecoglou is struggling to get the club where their fans think they should be – as usual on the MNC, Rory and Chris have differing views – surprise, surprise! 

And Brentford take the spotlight after having the best home record in the league. Many say it’s down to manager Thomas Frank and the culture he has created at the club – after a dressing-room video went viral with him praising his players. But not everyone has experienced that in their footballing career….

Champions League Debrief: Duran stunner & Alisson returns

It's been confirmed the FIFA World Cup will be returning to the Middle East in 10 years' time after FIFA awarded Saudi Arabia the hosting rights to the 2034 tournament. 

Securing football’s most high-profile tournament is just the latest example of the Kingdom’s growing influence on global sport, which its critics say is in an effort to 'sportswash' the regime's reputation.

Katie Smith is joined by BBC sports editor Dan Roan and Tariq Panja, global sports correspondent for The New York Times, to provide the background to Saudi Arabia’s unopposed bid.

We hear from the president of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, Yasser Al Misehal, and from Amanda Staveley, who was part of the Saudi-backed takeover of Newcastle United in 2021, on why the tournament will be a great success, while BBC sports news correspondent Laura Scott speaks to Norwegian Football Federation president Lise Klaveness about Norway's decision to abstain from the voting process for the 2030 and 2034 tournaments.

Stephen Cockburn, Amnesty International’s head of housing, workers rights, and sport, and Wycombe Wanderers midfielder David Wheeler, the PFA’s sustainability champion, also join the podcast to discuss their concerns over human and the environment.

And we ask what all this means for Saudi Arabia’s huge investments in domestic football, particularly at Newcastle United.

Elsewhere Conor McNamara joins the pod as Arsenal see off Monaco in a comfortable three-nil victory with Saka getting a double and assist. Manager Mikel Arteta gives his thoughts on the win and the role of 18-year-old Myles Lewis–Skelly making his second start.
